Shibata replacement for Pioneer PN-Q1 PNQ1 stylus
The replacement for the Pioneer PN-Q1 PNQ1 needle stylus is used with the Pioneer PC-Q1 PCQ1 phono cartridge. The stylus features a Shibata diamond which is one of the most elegant diamond tip designs ever made. Its contact area gracefully traces the groove walls with exceeding effectiveness. It results in detailed and cohesive reproduction of the recorded material, including the very high frequencies missed or overlaid by others. The color of the stylus varies. For optimal performance, please check and correct the turntable and cartridge set-up including alignment and tracking force.
